Heavy on hops, that was always the brewery plan. So in 1980, we loaded Pale Ale up with Cascade—a new hop at the time named after the mountain range—and the intense aromas of pine and citrus sparked the American craft beer revolution.
Admin Note: Bottle/Can Conditioned. Considered a separate entry from the Draft/Draught version.

Bottle from an online shop. Golden amber, moderate cream colored head, citrus and honey-caramel nose. The flavor is vibrant, nicely C hopped, pretty smooth bitterness (not as I remember from many years ago but maybe my taste has changed). Nice light crusty-beer-bread hints on the cara side of the body. Truly a classic!

Amber pour, small white head. Pine and citrus aroma, particularly orange. Hoppy and malty with a surprisingly strong body and a soft carbonation. Very subtle pale ale in the modern craft ale world but it hits the right notes.
